Maintaining Your Swim Whisperers® Certification

The adaptive Swim Whisperers® Program is designed as an ongoing multi-level training program that ensures swim instructors stay current and competent, and continually enhance their skills. To continue to promote your Swim Whisperers® Certification after the first year, you need to participate in this progressive program. It works by having multiple certification levels, each building upon the previous one.

To maintain your certification, you will need to complete each subsequent level, which involves additional training, skill development, and knowledge refinement. This not only keeps you at the forefront of the latest adaptive teaching techniques but also helps you provide the highest quality swim instruction.

By maintaining your certification you will keep access to these perks:

  • Have access to more advanced techniques and strategies to help your special needs swimmers as well as all other swimmers who may be challenged by discomfort, fear, or trauma.

  • Continue to market yourself as Swim Whisperers® Certified in adaptive aquatics.

  • Remain listed as Swim Whisperers® Certified on our global map.

  • Get additional knowledge and skills to market and grow your business.

  • Extend your eligibility as a member of our Private Learning Facebook Group for ongoing training and support.

To maintain your certification status and keep access to your perks, you must ‘level up’ within 12 months from your initial enrollment in the preceding level. We recommend completing the Swim Whisperers® course within 90 days of enrollment. This timeframe allows you to consistently build and consolidate your understanding of the course material over three months.
